Re: Christmas Tunes |
This is the age of machinery
A mechanical nightmare
The wonderful world of technology
Napalm, hydrogen bombs, biological warfare
This is the twentieth century
But too much aggravation
It's the age of insanity
What has become of the green pleasant fields of Jerusalem?
Ain't got no ambition, I'm just disillusioned
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't wanna be here
My mama said she can't understand me
She can't see my motivation
Just give me some security
I'm a paranoid schizoid product of the twentieth century
You keep all your smart modern writers
Give me William Shakespeare
You keep all your smart modern painters
I'll take Rembrandt, Titian, Da Vinci and Gainsborough
Girl we gotta get out of here
We gotta find a solution
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't want to die here
I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in grey
Got no privacy, got no liberty
'Cos the twentieth century people
Took it all away from me
Don't wanna get myself shot down
By some trigger happy policeman
Gotta keep a hold on my sanity
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't wanna die here

Re: Christmas Tunes |
Arthur and Muswell coincidentally are my two favorite Kinks albums. I read somewhere that when asked what his favorite Kinks album is, Ray Davies has repeatedly said "the newest one" and Muswell Hillbillies. And is there a more perfect rocker than Victoria?
So here's another favorite;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jp9uQvkAzpUI always resented the hijacking of Jefferson Starship by Mickey Thomas et all, but I gotta admit the guy can sing.
And how can you not love the Elvin Bishop Group.
